Often when the night is come, ~.
With its quiet group at home, ~
While they broider, knit, or sew, /
q Read, or chat in voices low, Ri = ~ II, ~
Suddenly you.lift your eyes eja 49,
With an honest look, and wise;
But cannot read their lore
Tell ME less, or tell me more.
Like a picture in book,
Pure and peaceful is your look;
Quietly you walk your ways;
Steadfast duty fills the days.
Neither tears nor fierce delights,
Feverish days nor tossing nights,
Any troublous dreams confess
Tell me more, or tell me less.
Swift the weeks are on the wing;
Years are brief, and love thing
Blooming, fading, like flower;
Wake and seize the little hour.
Give me welcome or farewell;
Quick! | wait! And who can tell
What tomorrow may befall-
Love me more or not at all.

A New Extravagance.

Fashion has invented new extrava-
gance This applies to the favors given
to the guests at parties. The custom be-
gan quite innocently enough. Inexpen-
sive and odd souvenirs that preserved the
memory of the occasion, without being
vulgarly costly or extravagant in charac'
ter, were given. Now only money can
establish the popularity Of a dance favor.
1t is no longer question of how quain':
the device is, or how appropriate, but OF
how much it costs. Society is laughing
at woman who gave party, the guests
at which carried off set of salt-cellars
that she had bought, under the impress
sion that they were intended for souvenirs.
The other afternoon I came upon quite a
gang of young men and women leaving a
stylish house up town, each OF the women
carrying a canary in tiny cage. The
hostess had conceived the idea of giving
a song bird as favor for her afternoon
tea. The next thing in this line may
we'll be Skye terriers, pug dogs or Nal
tese kittens. Indeed, I am told that at a
recent party of some thirty people each
lady received pair of love-birds in q
cage. Love-birds, it may interest you to
know, are tiny paroquets, about the size
of sparrows, that do nothing but fight
one another while they are together, yet
die if male and female are not kept to-
gether in the cage. In South America
the natives, thanks to this propensity,
call them "man and wife. ."-New York

women like me, and your share Well,
you'll find it's enough to build you the
best house in town, and live better than
my uncles, Seth and William, ever
dreamed of doing"
Mrs. Holcomb folded her apron in her
fingers tremblingly, and the deason strug-
gled vainly to speak. -,
"It's sort of surprise, amt it?" said
Malvina, smoothing down the checked
silk smilingly. "And now that I've let it
out, suppose you'll all be glad to let me
go home. I'm nothing but bothersome
old woman"
Perhaps it is needless to say that the
bothersome old woman did not go home,
neither then nor at any time; that Kate's
wedding dress was the prettiest the town
had ever seen, and that Genes college
course was promptly begun; nor that the
deacon's surprise has not yet ceased to be
subject of wonderful discussion among
his neighbors, not excluding his brothers
Seth and William. m.-Saturday Night.

"Nazography."

French paper is soon to appear as the
organ of the science of ''nazography," a
system which, the author says, permits
Of divining the character, habits and in
clination Of people by asimple inspection
of their noses. He says: A long nose is
the sign of merit, power and genius; a
straight nose denotes a just, serious, fine,
iudicious and energetic mind; the Roman
nose propensity for adventure; wide
nose, with open nostlils, is mark OF SEN
suality; cleft nose, shows benevolence;
the curved, feshy nose, is sign of DOM
ination and cruelty; the curved thin nose,
on the contrary, is mark of brilliant
mind, but vain, and disposed to be ironi-
mind, sometimes coarse, and generally
playful, pleasant and frollcsome; Pale
nose indicates egotism, envy, heartless-
ness; and the quick, passionate, san
guine person has strongly colored nose
of uniform shade.

Daniel in the Lions Den.

A rich old speculator imagined that he
knew all about art, whereas he was an
ignoramus in regard to everything, in
fact, except in making money. This ola
fraud determined to make a valuable
present to his son-in-law, who was
preacher. -,
1t was suggested to him that an oil
painting representing Daniel in the Lions
Den would be very appropriate, so an
order was given to painter to produce
the work of art. 1t was almost finished
when the old speculator was called to in
spect it. 1t represented cross section
of the den with Daniel walking about
among the lions. When the old man
saw the picture he refused to take 1t.
He insisted that if Daniel was in the den
neither he nor the lions could be seen,
and the artist had to cover the lions and
Dan with q thick coat of black paint.
When the son-in-law was presented
with the picture he was somewhat dazed
to know what it represented.
'It represents Daniel in the Lions
Den," replied the art critic.
"But l don't sec either of them"
"That makes no difference. They are
in there. saw 'em myself. lf."-From the
German, IN SJtings
